Independence National Historical Park

National Historical Park — UNESCO World Heritage Site · Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

A cluster of federally owned blocks in the oldest part of Philadelphia containing Independence Hall, where the Declaration of Independence was adopted in 1776 and the United States Constitution was drafted and signed in 1787, and the Liberty Bell, which stands a short walk away in its own purpose-built glass pavilion. Independence Hall was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1979. Almost everything the National Park Service operates here is free, including the Assembly Room itself, and the park is walkable end to end in an afternoon.
